Wartburg Coach Stepping Down

Wartburg head men’s soccer coach, Kirk Artist, has stepped down from his position to pursue other endeavors in Ames, Iowa.

Artist served for seven years at the helm of the men’s soccer program and had a record of 79-61-14. The Knights qualified for the Iowa Conference tournament each year, made two appearances in the NCAA Tournament and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen in both of those years.

A national search for his replacement will begin immediately.
